A little whine

Pommard, built around 1760 on the outskirts of Baune, ( Cote de Beaune one might say,) is a typical example of the Burgundy landscape, where every village manor is a chateau and every grape has its own fiercely protected DOC. Burgundians are known for their tight grasp on their wallets and their wines, making potential customers pay dearly for sampling the produce and even more dearly for the social cachet of owning a bottle, whose price rises in increments of 30 Euros from 30 Euros up to the current world record of about 2500 Euros for a 3/4 litres of Romanee Conti, (vinyard shown.)
I came as close to trying the wine by eating one of their grapes, a 2019 Pinot Noir, and frankly, it wasn't much to sing and dance about.もっと詳しく
